Roland Lescure confirms that the Ministry of Economy is currently estimating the cost of a modification or suspension of pension reform, while this concession could be granted by the renunciating government. “Changing the pension reform” will cost “hundreds of millions in 2026 and billions in 2027”, however, he warned Roland Lescure, the Minister of the Economy, in France Inter, this Wednesday, October 8.
“We need the majority of the National Assembly to agree so as not to censor a government and approve a budget. All have to make concessions. Obviously, I am ready to do them, but not at any price. All concessions will have a price and it will be necessary to finance them,” said the former Minister of Industry.
Despite the government’s resignation, Bercy’s services are working on a budget project. “It must be presented before October 13 for constitutional reasons,” recalls Roland Lescure, which for this constitutes a cabinet.
